The place was exactly as shown. Truly a beautiful place with all the essentials needed in an apartment. The sunsets from the balcony were put of this world. Rex was amazing on making sure we were comfortable. Thank you for sharing your place with us. Will definitely stay there again.

Most beautiful beach and perfect location.

Our stay was amazing. The unit we stayed in was immaculate and had everything we needed to enjoy our vacation. The kitchen was fully stocked with items needed to cook, which has never been the case at other locations I stayed at in Florida. Everything you need for the beach is also included from towels to beach toys, umbrellas, chairs, and a wagon. Beach access is right across the street so it's a short walk to what I would consider the most beautiful beaches in Florida. The unit is centrally located and within walking distance to restaurants and stores. The view from the balcony shows off the beautiful sunsets and I loved sitting outside with my morning coffee. Zero complaints about our stay. Would like travelers to know that Bradenton and AMI is still in recovery from the last hurricanes they went through. I knew this going in and still chose to go bc I felt good about putting whatever money I spent into the local economy.

Family beach view condo

The condo was very nice . Location was excellent, close to everything. The only negative is that this condo is on a very busy intersection . It was very noisy if you wanted to sit outside on the deck and enjoy the ocean and the view .

Beautiful Property on a Beautiful Beach

We loved it so much, we're already planning to go back next year! This condo is HUGE and is the best-equipped place we have stayed. There is so much attention to detail; everything you need is available and the property is beautiful. You can tell that the owners have thought of anything and everything you'll need to have a fabulous beach vacation. FIVE STARS all around! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great view and very spacious

My family and I enjoyed our 1 night stay and we spent most of our time on the patio overlooking the beach. It’s a great spot to watch the sunset! We loved how it had a split floor plan with the 2 bedrooms and bathrooms and were surprised at how large the condo was. The only thing I wish was better was the smaller bedroom’s noise level from the intersection, however that is out of their control.

Very nice!!

Loved the layout of the condo with one full bedroom and bath with balcony in the back and the second full bedroom, bath and balcony in front and nice seating and TV area in between. Beautiful view of the Gulf at all times. TV had everything. Location close to everything! Be aware of the car noise if you are a light sleeper since this is on the corner of busy intersection. Highly recommend especially if you like walking to great places!

Amazing views!!

What an amazing condo with spectacular views. We saw dolphins mutilple times from the balcony. We loved the location of the beach and how it wasn't as busy as other areas. There are a ton of restaurants in walking distance. The kids loved the pool for a break from the sand. My only comment would be for light sleepers as this specific condo is at the intersection of a main road. We are already planning to come back and rent from Rex in the future! Thanks for an amazing first trip to Anna Maria Island!!

Our stay at Brandenton beach condo

The condo was spacious and well laid out. The views of the golf were beautiful and as the pictures showed. There is a nice balcony that has great views of the Gulf. The kitchen was spacious and well-equipped. The beds were comfortable. The owner was accessible and responded quickly with any questions we had. The only reason we did not give it five stars was because it is located at a busy intersection where the main road to the Island is right next to the condo. As a result the traffic noise was a bit more than we would like. It was not just resident traffic but commercial traffic as well. So that was the only thing we did not like about it. It is located within walking distance of some nice restaurants.

Location and views!

This was my first time renting a condo and it was a wonderful experience. The listing was just as advertised. All of the information was accurate. The condo is a little dated, but I knew that as I didn’t want to pay double for the same experience. My neighbor and I brought our small dogs and found plenty of restaurants we could go to where they could dine in with us, as most have outdoor seating. Many restaurants within walking distance. The property was very quiet (some road noise, but couldn’t hear any neighbors). The location was amazing as it is right across the street from the gulf and each bedroom has a balcony to enjoy it. I recommend closing curtains when not in condo, as that will help the A/C run better. Easy to walk to beach every day and we always felt safe. Lots of local activities to do, and we saw dolphins in both the gulf and the bay. We took a sunset cruise with The Salty Dolphin. Captain Jack is Coast Guard Reserve now and times everything perfect. Overall, wonderful experience and location for a condo!

Building and condo need a face lift.

Well-stocked huge kitchen; new very large fridge and dishwasher. Every small apppliance one could ever want. Well-equipped ensuite bathroom but separate toilet room very old fashioned; same in 2nd bathroom with combination tub/shower and toilet in separate room. The plungers did not work in any of the 3 bathroom sinks. The owner was notified, a repairman was sent but nothing was fixed while we were there. The apartment is located on the corner of the busiest intersection on the island and is very noisy except between 2AM - 6AM. Never used either balcony because of the roar of traffic. The whole building is old and rundown. However, the pool is very large and well-maintained. The building is central to dining and activities which is a plus.

Across the street from the beach

The home was clean, neat, and organized. The kitchen was well stocked. The bathrooms could use a few more washcloths. The master bedroom was warmer than the rest of the condo, but we found a fan in a closet. The unit was advertised as a 3 bedroom condo and I though that was what I rented, but when I got the confirmation printout, it said 2 bedroom and a sleeper sofa in the family room (which was the living room). That was upsetting because we needed 3. One adult was cheated out of a private sleeping area and had no closet. And a 2 bedroom condo usually costs less. I did email the owner and got no response but maybe it was the type of mailbox that is not monitored for incoming mail. Maybe I should have called him instead. We made do with the situation and still had fun. It is a good location but is right next to Cortez - a main entry to the island - there was a lot of traffic. You have to cross Gulf Dr to get to the beach and Gulf Drive is a busy street, but people are usually courteous and let you cross in front of them. There was maintenence /repair going on in/around other units in the building so there was quiet a bit of noise in the area. These things were annoyances, but not a game-changer. The area has many attractions and things to do close by. The Wicked Cantina and Green Turtle Gift Shop are just a short walk away, the beach is across the street. The owner has a storage area that has beach items, chairs, even a wagon‐this is a great, cost saving convenience
